‘TSN’s Pierre LeBrun adds to the depth of this trade by saying that the Devils will retain 50% of his current salary, which will add $2.5 million to the Sabres’ salary cap. LeBrun also adds that there are no talks of a contract extension in place with Simmonds, but it’s certainly a possibility for the pending unrestricted free agent this summer.’
